January 30 – February 4, 2010
Welcome to The Journey Tower Grove Campus’ Weekly Update. This blog is here to keep you in the loop on some of the life that’s taking place at our campus.
Interested in becoming a member? The Gospel Class is a five-week course on the basic doctrine of our church and the beginning of the process to become a member of The Journey. The class will begin at Tower Grove on Wednesday, February 24, 2010. Registration begins on line and at Connection Point on February 7 and close on February 15 or when classes are full.
Current members, as part of the Engage movement, we will soon begin a process of asking every current Journey member to re-up their membership commitment. Stay tuned for more information to come soon. If you are unsure of your current membership status, please contact your campus administrator at infoTG@journeyon.net.
If you’re in a community group and interested in serving the city hands-on, come take part in Mission: St. Louis’ initiative called Community Loop. Community Loop allows groups to work together to complete home improvement projects in impoverished neighborhoods. For more information, please contact Josh Kamer at josh.kamer@communityloopstl.org and plan to attend a training on Feb 8, at 7 PM in the Luminary.
Healing Communities at Karis House are starting up again. A Healing Community is a place where it is acceptable to be broken, have problems, admit failure, and where help is expressed in concrete, practical ways. The mission of these groups is to help hurting people heal through Gospel-centered community. The groups for this semester include topics dealing with sexual identity, relationships and intimacy, eating and body image issues and coping with grief. Click here for more details and to register.
